Chapter 700: Out of the Circle, New Movie Project
The popularity of "The Hidden Corner" continues to rise, and the popularity of the actors has skyrocketed.
Moreover, there are a lot of stalks out of the circle.
Every time Qin Hao participates in an event, the host of the event basically asks him to tell a stalk: "I still have a chance?" ”
In "The Hidden Corner", he plays the role of "Zhang Dongsheng" who pushes people off the cliff, and he is a very complex villain.
But the process of becoming a villain is traceable in the plot.
His wife cheated on him and wanted to divorce him, and all kinds of reasons combined led him to become a murderer.
Qin Hao is indeed a good actor, and has acted in many movies, and has even been nominated for awards abroad.
The reason why he is willing to star in "The Hidden Corner" is also for the brand of Ark Culture and Fang Xing.
It's just that he didn't expect that playing the villain role in a TV series could also increase his popularity so much.
In general TV series, villains are hated to the point of gnashing their teeth.
Because the villains of most TV series are pure villains, they won't have much ink on how to become villains.
The character of "Zhang Dongsheng" is a criminal, but the audience knows why he became a criminal.
This is a very vivid character.
Besides.
There is also the nursery rhyme "Little White Boat", which is also very out of the circle.
It's just that the audience who has watched "The Hidden Corner" regards this song as a horror nursery rhyme.
In fact, if this song does not have the background of "The Hidden Corner", it is actually a very beautiful children's song.
Throughout June, the drama "The Hidden Corner" was swiped.
This made other video sites, suspense dramas that wanted to fight in the ring, and they were directly carried down before they started a few days ago.
Suspense dramas are a hard-hitting theme.
If it's good-looking, it's good-looking, and if it's not good-looking, no audience will watch it.
This is not quite the same as idol dramas.
The idol drama is bad, it doesn't matter, as long as the starring actor is an idol, fans don't care about the plot at all, lick the screen and it's over.
Therefore, idol dramas, especially ancient puppets, have a high lower limit.
Even an ancient puppet with a score of 5 points can become a hit drama.
Suspense dramas are different.
If a suspense drama wants to become a hit drama, it requires at least 7 points or more.
A score of 6 is a passing score, but a suspense drama with a score of 6 is impossible to become a hit drama.
"The Hidden Corner" shows a score of 8.8 after the opening score of Bean Sprouts.com.
The suspense drama with a score of 8.8 points is indeed crazy.
The suspense dramas of other video sites can't be fought at all.
Even if Penguin Video brings up a 7-point suspense drama, the quality is actually not bad, and 7 points is also a good score.
However, when you compare 7 points and 8.8 points together, the difference is huge.
Therefore, the suspense drama brought up by Penguin Video has decent data, but it can't be compared with "The Hidden Corner" at all.
The whole month of June is the reign of The Hidden Corner.
……
After the broadcast of "The Hidden Corner", the average number of views exceeded 100 million, reaching 118 million, which also shows how popular this show is.
The little actor Rong Zijin, who played "Zhu Chaoyang", won a lot of praise.
After all, he was only 13 years old, and he acted in such a work out of the circle.
Many viewers said that Rong Zijin's future actor career is promising.
Rong's mother was very happy, and she was very glad that she had brought her son to the audition, otherwise she would not have had such a good opportunity.
With the help of the hit broadcast of "The Hidden Corner", the brand theater of Misty Theater has once again been renamed.
With the end of this drama, Ark Culture has also started the early warm-up of the next suspense drama "Residual Sins 2".
Both dramas are custom dramas of the Mist Theater, so "Residual Sins 2" is used to take over "The Hidden Corner".
Even at the end of "The Hidden Corner", the starring actor of "Residual Sins 2" made a cameo in the play.
Because of this matter, it has also been on a hot search.
[This year, the Misty Theater is really okay, I just finished watching "The Hidden Corner", and "Residual Sins 2" is about to be broadcast again. 】
[Sure enough, suspense dramas still have to look at Ark culture. 】
[To be precise, it depends on Fang Xing. As long as there is Fang Xing's name, whether it is a director or a producer, it is a guarantee of quality. 】
[There were no particularly good-looking suspense dramas last year, but this year I finally have them. 】
["Residual Sins 2" should not be much worse, the first season is very good, let's broadcast it quickly. ] While my membership hasn't expired yet. 】
[What are you thinking upstairs?] Of course, when your membership expires, Wandou Video will broadcast "Residual Sins 2", otherwise how can you continue to open VIP. 】
[I'm much more shrewd, I saw that there were two dramas of Ark Culture in the Misty Theater at the beginning of this year, and I decisively held the annual meeting at half price. As expected, the combination of Fang Xing and Misty Theater is the guarantee of quality. 】
[I think there's another way.] That is, don't open VIP first, wait for "Residual Sins 2" to start, and then open VIP, watch "The Hidden Corner" first, and then watch "Residual Sins 2", which is perfect. 】
[Kill you.] 】
……
While promoting "Residual Sins 2", the second season of "Bear Infested" was also broadcast on the children's channel of CCTV, and then began to be broadcast on the children's channels of provincial satellite TV and local TV stations.
The competition for children's cartoons is not so fierce, and there are few TV stations that broadcast exclusively, so high-quality cartoons will be broadcast by many TV stations.
Moreover, Fang Xing has higher expectations for "Bear Infested", so the price of selling to TV stations is basically half sold and half sent, and what goes is volume.
is also because many TV stations are broadcasting "Bear Infested".
Now this cartoon has become a household name.
……
Not only other children like to watch it, but the little princess in Fang Xing's family also likes to watch it.
Fang Xing went home for dinner every day, and he would mutter about what Xiong Da and Xiong Er were doing today.
Shallow is talking more and more, the pronunciation is also very standard, and I like to sing very much, and the pitch is still very good.
After all, Mom and Dad are musicians with names in the music industry, and they have grown up under the influence of music since they were children, and they are naturally very sensitive to melody.
However, Fang Xing and Lu Xianger did not pressure their daughter to learn musical instruments, and they both hoped that their daughter could grow up happily and have a happy childhood.
Of course, if you want to learn music, Fang Xing will not stop you.
At least when Fang Xing was playing the piano, Qianqian liked to join in the fun, every time she heard her father play the piano, she had to sit aside and press it together.
Fang Xing would occasionally teach her to play a few keys, and then play together in an ensemble to make her happy.
Asa likes to play with his dad with four hands, and he giggles happily every time.
Once.
In order to compete for favor, Fang Xing and Lu Xiang'er arranged the piano and violin in front of Qianqian, and asked her which one she wanted to learn.
With a shallow smile, he reached out and pressed it on the piano.
Because of this incident, Lu Xiang'er was very unhappy for a while.
However, since my daughter likes the piano.
Fang Xing signed her up for piano lessons and asked her to learn piano.
Even if you don't take the piano as a profession in the future, it doesn't matter, as long as you like it, learning to play the piano is one more talent.
Of course, if Qianqian doesn't like it, Fang Xing won't force her to continue studying.
However, after a few lessons, it seems that he is still quite interested, and every time he comes back from learning, he has to take his father to the piano room with him to perform what he has learned.
At least learning the piano is a very happy thing for Asami.
……
After entering July, the summer season is coming.
In the summer of this year, there are no movies released in Ark Culture, so Fang Xing has no work to do.
Only promotional activities for Remnant Sins 2 are required.
There isn't much publicity for "Remnant Sins 2".
Because it's a series, the first season did well.
As long as the audience has watched "Remnant Sins 1", when they see the news that "Remnant Sins 2" is going to be broadcast, they will definitely try it.
The series has this benefit.
When the word-of-mouth of a series rises, the sequel does not need to invest a lot in publicity to achieve good results.
……
Halfway through the summer vacation.
Fang Xing felt that the time was almost up, and called a meeting of the company's senior management to discuss the production plan of "The Wandering Earth 2".
The box office performance of "The Wandering Earth 1" is very good, with a box office of 4.7 billion, and it has basically been booked as the annual box office champion for the whole year.
This box office result, unless there is still a super dark horse movie in the summer file, the annual box office champion is stable.
Now that the summer season is halfway over, there are no super fierce movies.
If there is such a dark horse movie, it should be released on the first day of the summer file.
In a year, the three major movie schedules are the Spring Festival, summer and National Day.
Moreover, the three movie schedules are ranked in order, and the schedule with the highest total box office is undoubtedly the Spring Festival file, followed by the summer file and the National Day file.
Now that the summer season has passed halfway, there is no movie that can surpass "The Wandering Earth".
Then the rest of the National Day files, if you want to produce a movie with a box office of 4.7 billion, the chances are already very small.
After all, the prime time of the summer file is only 7 days, and after 7 days, the box office will fall off a cliff, and it is difficult to support the box office data of 4.7 billion.
At the beginning of the year.
When Fang Xing appeared in the interview with "Filmmaker", he said that there would be "The Wandering Earth 2".
It's just that this sentence was only said on "The Filmmaker", and there was no news after that.
Even the company's top management doesn't know when this legendary "The Wandering Earth 2" will be made.
At the beginning, the industry heard that Fang Xing was going to produce "The Wandering Earth 2", and many companies took the initiative to find out and wanted to seek cooperation.
However, Ark Culture's response is that there is no production plan for the time being.
Half a year has passed.
Fang Xing finally put this matter on the agenda.
"Yes, at today's meeting, there is one more thing to discuss, that is, the production plan of "The Wandering Earth 2".
Hearing this, the high-level cultural leaders of the Ark in the conference room were all in high spirits.
What kind of movie is The Wandering Earth 1?
With a box office of 4.7 billion, it opened up the Chinese science fiction film market by itself.
Countless audiences cheered that this year is the first year of science fiction in the history of Chinese films.
That's how outrageous the achievement is.
Perhaps, there will be a Chinese science fiction movie that surpasses "The Wandering Earth" in the future, but the audience will never forget that it is this movie that has completed the step from scratch.
Now, "The Wandering Earth 2" is coming.
Even Fang Xing's expression was a little excited: "For the second part, I only have one request, to be the best science fiction movie in China, better than the first one." ”
When it comes to making movies, everyone else is concerned about how to make it, but Qiao Yinghong is concerned about how much it will cost.
"How much to invest? Is it the same as the first part? Are we the main investors, or are we openly looking for investments? ”
Fang Xing replied: "We plan to invest 600 million, we are the main investment, we can also accept investment from other groups, and the specific plan is responsible for the investment department and the film and television production department." ”
Invest 600 million.
This is by far the largest film and television work invested by Ark Culture.
Prior to this, the largest investment was "The Wandering Earth 1", with an investment of 500 million.
This time, another 100 million was added.
Moreover, the special effects of the movie are still produced by the subsidiary Nebula Special Effects, which means that the cost of special effects can be saved a lot.
With an investment of 600 million, the actual effect will definitely exceed 600 million.
After confirming the launch of the "The Wandering Earth 2" project, Ark Culture began to get busy again.
After the meeting.
Fang Xing brought Zhang Yigao and Wang Yutao to the office to talk about the follow-up work plan.
Since Wang Yutao was the executive director during the filming of "The Wandering Earth 1", a lot of the filming work was done by him.
The project was so big that sometimes two or three studios were filmed together, and one director couldn't keep it busy.
Therefore, Fang Xing really needs an executive director.
However, Zhang Yigao and Wang Yutao are now famous in the field of TV dramas, and now when they go out, they can easily get one or two hundred million projects.
They may not want to continue as executive directors.
Therefore, Fang Xing had to talk to them and respect their opinions.
If they want to participate in the "The Wandering Earth 2" project, Fang Xing will let them join, and if they want to independently direct other film and television works, Fang Xing will also agree.
As for the executive director, Fang Xing will find the right person from other places.
Fang Xing opened his mouth and said: "Your drama has been filmed, "Residual Sins 2" has not been broadcast yet, but it is about to be broadcast. I'd like to ask you guys if you have any new plans. ”
Zhang Yigao replied: "I am talking about new film and television projects with the production department, but I don't have eyebrows yet, and I am not in a hurry to launch new projects." ”
Wang Yutao didn't wait for Fang Xing to speak, and took the initiative to say: "I want to join "The Wandering Earth 2", or executive director. I was the executive director of the first part, and I want to continue to work on the second part. ”
Fang Xing thought about it for a while and said: "The Wandering Earth 2 really needs an executive director. However, you can hire someone else, and if you have other work plans, you can go to work on something else first. ”
Wang Yutao insisted: "I wanted to shoot "The Wandering Earth 2", when I filmed the first part, I had a lot of ideas, and I didn't have the opportunity to shoot it, I hope it can be used in the second part." Moreover, I felt that in the first part, my work should be passable and I could be competent in the second part. ”
Fang Xing saw that he really wanted to join "The Wandering Earth 2", so he nodded and said, "Since you want to join, then continue." ”
Zhang Yigao asked by the way: "Is there a plan for the second part of "The Three-Body Problem"? ”
Fang Xing nodded and replied: "Yes, "Three-Body Problem 2" can also be prepared slowly. ”
